The most common are the following three types of such crafts: flowerbed, imitation under a bush and a statue. The first two methods are much simpler, the last one is a bit more complicated. It is the creation of such hedgehogs from plastic bottles that will be considered in this material.
Flowerbed
The easiest way to make a flower bed. This is the easiest and most affordable way to create a craft like a hedgehog from a plastic bottle. To start
you need to choose the right size packaging. Suitable containers of any size, it depends on your imagination. Then, using a marker, mark the plastic bottle as follows: put the container on its side, make two vertical lines in the middle of the container opposite each other along the cylindrical part. In this case, it is necessary to deviate from the bottom to the beginning of the cone 3 centimeters. Next, connect the lines to each other. Then, using a knife, we cut the container according to the marking. On the conical part we make a muzzle using the same marker. A spout looms on the lid. The whole animal is ready and put where it was planned. The inside is filled with soil and flowers are planted. After they have ascended and blossomed, the flowerbed is ready.
Bush
Even simpler are the hedgehogs made of plastic bottles with their own hands in this case. For this, one container of 1, 1.5 or 2 liters in size is enough. Cut off the conical part. Next, we need to imitate the muzzle on it, and the same nose from the lid. Then you need a bush. Preferably a small one that would resemble this spiny animal. On one side, his previously created head is laid out, and in our case the hedgehog is ready. Indeed, this is the easiest way to create crafts such as hedgehogs from plastic bottles made by yourself.
The statue
This is the most difficult option, which requires creative thinking and rich imagination. In this case, 2 containers are needed. One of them should be smaller (e.g.
1.5 liters), and the second is larger (2 liters will do). On a small container using the previously described method, we make a muzzle and a nose out of the lid. In large, in turn, the conical part is cut off. Next, you need to simulate the needles. To do this, we make many holes with an awl and we install nails inside them. If desired, nails can be replaced with curved wire or something similar. If necessary, all this can be painted with paint for greater naturalness. At the next stage, a large, cropped one is put on a small container, which is fixed with adhesive tape around the entire perimeter. Everything, the craft is ready. In this way, many statuettes such as hedgehogs from plastic bottles can be made. With your own hands, as you can see, you can make a lot.
